Then you have infrequent red plate - no experience. Then you have taxi and PHV - fatigue. Not all red plate owners are inexperienced. It is a big stereotype , MCF has many car owners who have their second car as a red plate. Others, who work in the city and are desk bound don't drive to work as well, and it makes perfect sense for them to have a red plate car. It costs an arm and a leg to park a car in the city, especially if the job is desk bound.... ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter is bugging me to sponsor her to get a driving licence becos “a lot“ of her frens are getting theirs in order to drive these mini cars...they find it cheaper than expenses on riding phv... I told my girl I won’t...her life is worth much more than the meagre savings... what I didn’t tell her is 不要害人害己和我的钱包😂 2 1 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiyo, waste money getting driving licence liao? Lol. Actually after obtained licence, must constantly drive one, if not eventually might become 'scare' to drive. Got chance and got car, must drive even for short distance. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if work in city and desk bound thus make perfect sense not to drive to work...then still inexperienced?

In a way I agree, should encourage her to drive and not lose the skill and confidence.
